Wheels and tyres are on. One of the wheels has a bit of deflection in it - noticed when I was balancing them. I have another pal who straightens wheels, I took it to him and he suggested I leave as it and have it as the spare since it is not too bad.
Will take a bit of getting used too, they look so narrow compared to the big off roads that were on there. Driveability is MUCH improved - acceleration, cornering, braking, ride is smoother and softer, and the tyres are quiet. Takes a lot less throttle to keep it at constant speed so economy should also come back.
Trailmaster suspension will be here this week, fit that, a quick coolant flush and that should be the bulk of the fettling done.
I'll upload a few more pics when the suspension is being fitted, and after I give Wee Jimmy a good wash and clean.

Big box arrived from Trailmaster / Maas today. Just been looking through it. Looks really good kit.
Interestingly the shocks are a similar colour to my wheels.
Excited to be fitting it tomorrow.
